AURORA, Colo. -- This will be a Thanksgiving to remember for a young Aurora couple who has been homeless for four months.

Dustin Nguyen, 19, Angelique Robinson, 17, and their 15-month-old daughter, Jazzlean, hit a rough spot last summer.

"I lost my job, just got laid off," Nguyen said. "We had our own place. Everything seemed fine, then the next thing you know, we got an eviction notice."

"We were panicking," Robinson added. "We didn't know what to do."

After spending weeks at a time with various family members the couple went public with their story.

That's when Bill Jennings and his Wish Organization stepped forward to help.

"Because of their ages, they couldn't get assistance," Jennings said. "The only way they could get assistance was if they split up."

So Jennings helped raise enough money to pay for six months rent for the couple at a new apartment at the Vistas at Saddle Rock in Aurora.

He called his friends at American Income Life and they collected money to buy groceries for the family.

Jennings made another phone call to National Hotel Liquidators and got the firm to donate furniture.

The young family moved in to their fully furnished apartment Wednesday afternoon.

"I was like wow," Robinson said. "This house means everything to me. I want to keep it after the six months are up. Hopefully we'll have a job and we can keep it. I don't want to be out on the streets anymore."

Jennings, who is still waiting for his Wish Organization to be granted nonprofit status, said he couldn't wait to help the couple.

"We wanted them to stay together," he said.

Jennings founded Wish shortly after retiring.

"I'd gone on a camping trip and picked up a CD," he told 7NEWS. "Michael Jackson had just died. The CD included the song 'Man in the Mirror.' I listened to the song and that inspired me to spend the rest of my life helping other people."

Jennings said paying six months rent for the couple was the first wish his organization had granted. He's now trying to raise more money to fund other wishes.

Anyone wishing to contribute can visit the Wish Web site.

Robinson and Nguyen said they are grateful for Jennings' help.

"They are angels from above," Robinson said. "When we get back on our feet, we're going to invite the Wish people over for dinner."

In the meantime, the young family is planning to enjoy a warm, safe Thanksgiving in their own new home.
